Great time and outstanding visit to Luxor - The trip was great and absolutely worthy to visit great monuments and temples.
The guide we had in abu Simbel, Kom obo Edfu were very good and gave good explaination.
But the best guide we could possibly imagine has been Abanoub which stayed with us the whole day, he is incredibly knowledgeable of every subject, he guided us through the temples and the valley of kings. His passion for his job, the ancient story and the culture made us appreciate the day and motivated to visit everything despite the intense heat.
To be noticed, he did never left us, he provided water and treated us with great care.
We will remember this day as one of the best of our Egyptian experience

Very comolete tour - even with no reference guide - Excellent tour. May be chaotic at times, but there is always someone taking care of you. We had a different guide at each city. We had a hot air balloon plus the experiences in all the temples. Even the guide arranged for a falucca trip for us!

Good experience - Very good tour. Very good price-quality ratio. It's a little disorganized but everything works. We had almost VIP treatment, we were a couple and a traveler and that was it. The ship is old, but they are all like that. Recommendable. Khaled in Luxor was very good, good explanations and you can tell he knows. Bob, the balloon pilot was very good

The best way to experience Egypt - If you are in Egypt, you should be on this tour. Covered Aswan,Luxor in details. The Guide Michael was too good. The information he gave was making the sightseeing interesting. He had full knowledge on the sites and the history. The cruise was good and we enjoyed it. Sailing was only for 1 and half day , so we were at the same place for 2 nights , not very interesting thing in the cruise.
All else cool

40/60 - Boat: very welcoming staff, swimming pool (lack of water and not cleaned) and very dilapidated bathroom. Approximate wifi connection.
Guide: all the guides for top visits. Exceptional hospitality, especially our last guide Amine for the visit to Luxor and Karnac.

A must-experience travel!! - Nile cruise is worth experiencing because of the beautiful Nile itself and the amazing historic sites. Especially Mina and Micheal were really professional guides, who always make short and essential explanations in an interesting and enjoyable way.
But the food in the cruise can be improved, especially the lunch’s.

A healing and informative trip! - I really want to recommend everyone to see the Nile River from a cruise ship cabin. Looking at the beautiful scenery of the Nile River makes me feel happy.
In addition, it was a very useful trip where I learned and saw many things by seeing all the historical sites of Egypt, from the Philae Temple in Aswan to Abu Simbel, Kom Ombo, and Edfu Luxor, while listening to the guide's interesting explanations.
However, it's a pity that we couldn't ride the balloon due to the weather. However, it is fortunate that I was able to get a refund for not being able to ride the balloon.
Lunch tends to be less tasty than breakfast or dinner on cruise ships.
